I switched to the Blizzard cus the Apollo 60 I had did conflict with the PCMCIA slot. The Squirrel only worked with the Blizzard. You can always get the SCSI KIT for the Blizzard for external drives, which is what I do. You can then use the PCMCIA for network and broadband... which is also what I do.

On that power issue, always try and get an A500 brick when you start to load up the 1200. I learnt this the painful way when I tried to use a 3.5" hd in a 1200. I sent it back to the shop, then found I could have resolved matters with more power. All my 1200s have the brick as opposed to the original power supply.

There is a picture of one of my bricks on my website:

I like the improvisation of your workstation, especially the creative use of house bricks.

Looks nice and snug. With minimum amount of swivel from your chair you're in front of another computer, genius.

Thats just the workshop.. You should see this room and my actual Amiga room. And they are all built around rotating on one chair. I do enjoy my computing.

Isn't it called the A1060? Or is my memory trying to trick me again?


Correct. And I don`t have one :-( .... If anyone is feeling generous.
